But that is true for any drug/substance if a detection level is used: Above the level,
positive;
below the level, negative. Same thing happens when a ratio is used - i.e. T/E ratio
changes with
time. More out-of-competition testing would nab more of these.

Isn't the problem though that the low levels could just be higher levels that have

If it's not performance-enchancing and it's not illegal, why is anyone or
any org
important question not addressed here is whether or not IAAF will accept the
CGF decision. Obviously (see Mary Slaney), what other alphabet bodies do
doesn't always count.

MANCHESTER, England (AP) - Kim Collins, the surprise 100 meters winner from
St. Kitts, became the first Commonwealth Games gold medalist to test
positive for drugs.

When you run between 12.40 and 12.60 week after week, for YEARS, and you're
neck and neck with your competition, then your competition DISAPPEARS on you
and starts running 12.8-12.9ish, are you left as AOY by default?
In my mind AOY involves not just head-to-head accomplishments, but usually
also
Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the energy system usage for a
marathon is something to the tune of 99% aerobic/1% anaerobic. The 10k is
95% aerobic/5% anaerobic. The 5k is 90% aerobic/10% anaerobic. The 3k/2mile
is 80% aerobic/20% anaerobic. The mile is 60% aerobic/40% anaerobic.

Hm
And just as field event athletes are hurt in AOY voting because they can only do one
discipline, a marathoner is hurt because he/she can't compete but 2 or three times a
year at their main event, whereas Devers can run every third or fourth day for
virtually the entire summer.

Man, it
No she wouldn't because Regina got silver in 97 and 99 and wasn't even in
the ballpark for OAY
My AOY list right now would be
1) Devers
2) Fefanova
3) Radcliffe
4)Bergvist - 2.04 is no joke!
5) Pintesevich
6) Jones

I'm not so sure that Devers could mimic Andre.
He was a long-legged type. She's a short-legged power sprinter. In fact,
she's the type I'd pick to set records at Indoor 50 and 60 meter distances.
Thus her 100m sprint victory at Barcelona.
That usually doesn't translate well to 400H.
Jackie Joyn
You are correct. The Brits, the Canadians and the Continentals would diss her
and taint her with 'doping by association' :-)
My personal view: Radcliffe should be on the 'short list' for AOY, if the
season were to end today. So would Devers.
But in my book, NEITHER is clear-cook heads-and-shoul
now, you know that she could if she wanted too. Andre Phillips was another
great example of hurdling versatily.

Methinks Radcliffe's endeavours would be viewed in a different light if she
were American . . .

All you physiologists out there- what are the energy system

is running and are there gender differences)? My recollection is that
they're extremely close. The difference in distances (42k is 14 times longer than 3k)

I'd buy the non-versatility argument a lot better if all of Radcliffe's
accomplishments were from say 10,000m through marathon.
The marathon is 14 times 3000 meters. If Devers is such a great hurdler, why
doesn't she do the 400 hurdles? That's only 4 times as far as she's used to
and the hurdles
